化身成母牛的“颇哩提毗”被国王“钵哩提”追赶

颇哩提毗(英文:Prithvi),为印度神话中古老的地母神,名字有“包容者”的意思,一般认为是天父特尤斯的妻子、诸神的母亲。《梨俱吠陀》、《阿闼婆吠陀》称赞她是具备伟大、坚固、不灭性、繁生土地、养育群生等美德的“地母(Bhumi)”。此外,她还有很多称号,如:Vishvasvam(意为“一切的本源”)、Prshni(意为“植物的母亲”)、Dharitri(意为“养育者”)、Dhar(意为“支撑者”)、Ratnagarbha(意为“珍宝的仓库”)等

传说颇哩提毗曾化身成母牛,被毗湿奴化身的国王“钵哩提(Prithu)”追赶。最终,颇哩提毗答应听命,并献出自己的乳汁,自此大地开始为人类提供食物。颇哩提毗后被佛教吸收,称其为“地天”、坚牢地神,是“十二天”之一。

Prithvi (Sanskrit: पृथ्वी, pṛthvī, also pṛthivī) "the Vast One" is the Sanskrit name for the earth as well as the name of a devi in Hinduism and Buddhism.

As Pṛthvī Mātā "Mother Earth" she contrasts with Dyaus Pita "father sky". In the Rigveda, Earth and Sky are primarily addressed in the dual as Dyavaprthivi. She is associated with the cow. Prithu, an incarnation of Vishnu, milked her in cow's form.
